Pokemon Go is "prohibited" by Islam, Egyptian religious body says

An official for the top Islamic authority in Egypt told dpa on Thursday that the mobile phone reality game Pokemon Go is "prohibited" by Islam.

Playing the game is as illicit as drinking alcohol, which is forbidden by Islam, according to Abbas Shouman, the deputy chief of al-Azhar, the world's foremost seat of Sunni Islamic learning.

"It negatively influences the mind and harms the player or others without being aware of that," Shouman said.

The al-Azhar official praised modern technology for helping people save time and effort, but added that some people become "obsessive" with it, which leads them to neglect work and worship.

Pokemon Go is not yet available in Egypt.

The game, provided by Japan's Nintendo Co Ltd. for iPhone and Android devices, has recently caused an obsession around the world.

Pokemon Go is built on Niantic's Real World Gaming Platform, using real locations to encourage players to search far and wide in the real world to discover Pokemon via GPS and mobile cameras.

Pokemon Go allows a player to find and catch more than a hundred species of Pokemon while he or she explores local surroundings using a mobile phone. It sometimes lures players to go to prohibited areas to find the virtual creature and win the game.

How low will Brick Young stoop to bash a religion? He makes a clickbait thread title saying it's prohibited by Islam, meanwhile it's some Egyptian Magician declaring something like that. Sorry, it's not prohibited. And get a life. No one pays you to troll loser :oldlol:

Another L for the guy with the most free time on ISH.

That's right.

Being soft hearted, gentle with all creatures, easily moved to tears, and hypersensitive to the environment is what happens when one leads an Islamic life.

As for the OP, there are a million and one things out there that take away developing consciousness of God, i.e. Taqwa, and faith, Imam, the two most precious, priceless things a human being can have in this world.

It's a shame we've led our lives swapping Taqwa/Imam for worthless fleeting entertainment.

Love you man. Keep spreading the positive message. Someday I hope to be on the same plane of thought as you... totally free from the new-generation shenanigans.

Keep the prayers up, keep your morals, and avoid temptations. You will be rewarded.

It's ok for you, you seem to have a good grasp of peaceful Islam and really understand the Quran well.


what are we going to do with the many millions who can't interpret it well and use it as a weapon?

Otherwise we are racist.

Muslims don't have a pope or a "church". So who cares what some priest in Egypt has declared "prohibited"?
